Larian Studios, the creators of the critically acclaimed Baldur's Gate 3, have announced a complete shift in focus to their next project, initiating a self-imposed media silence.
While a highly anticipated Patch 8 for Baldur's Gate 3 is slated for release later this year, Larian's leadership has confirmed their undivided attention is now dedicated to their next venture. Swen Vincke, Larian's head, recently tweeted a reflection on the studio's journey with Baldur's Gate 3, hinting at future endeavors while acknowledging the need for a creative refresh.
In a subsequent statement to VideoGamer, Larian officially declared a "media blackout," emphasizing the team's complete dedication to developing their next title.
Details about Larian's upcoming game remain scarce. What we do know is that it won't be a Baldur's Gate sequel or any other D&D-related project. Instead, it's an entirely original creation, a departure Larian chose after internal discussions failed to generate enthusiasm for a Baldur's Gate continuation.
Previous statements from Vincke offer only cryptic hints. In November 2023, he alluded to the game's boundary-pushing ambition. Earlier, in July 2023, he mentioned the eventual possibility of a new Divinity: Original Sin game, but stressed that it wasn't an immediate priority.
Speculation abounds regarding the nature of Larian's next project. Given their history with fantasy RPGs, a shift to science fiction, a modern setting, or even a completely different genre is entirely possible. However, it seems likely that significant time, potentially years, will pass before any concrete details are revealed.
